We have something a little different for you this week. Vanessa Ruck is the person behind the Girl on a Bike blog. As you will hear in the fascinating and inspiring story is how Vanessa has used motorcycling as a target to help her recover from some quit debilitating injuries.  

After having a bicycle accident in March 2014 Vanessa has since been on a roller coaster with a 6.5 year recovery seeing 7 surgeries and two reconstructed body parts. 

Throughout this time, Vanessa discovered motorcycles. Starting with cruising but rapidly ramping up to adventure, hard enduro and now...of particular interest to us...trials!.

We will hear how Vanessa used motorcycling as a goal to help her with her recovery and how she went from her first bike to the N+1 approach to bikes!
